The Light

O'er the town of Bethlehem A perfect light did shine There to guide the wise men free And give hope to all mankind To show the world this miracle Of pure unselfish love How Christ the child was born this day Sent down from heaven above From darkness, now the world would come How clear the path would be That leads to everlasting life And love eternally It's always there for all to see For some to glorify As long has there are hopeful hearts This light will never die Rejoice this night Behold his light Let us praise his name forever Christ the child is born The world will pause to celebrate This child that Mary gave The good He brought, the love He taught The world He came to save The light is there It's always there Let voices ring A king was born this day The light is there It's always there So let us share This glorious light that shines on us This Christmas day
